So, without having any idea, is there a benefit to leaving some space under the $100 million or better to spend as much as you can?

 
where is everyone today? Eephus could pick now if he wanted I think.

leaving some room may give you flexibility during the seasons (specifically the winter transfer period) to bring a more expensive player into your team that is transferred into the EPL.
 
10.06 Steven Fletcher FWD TBA Wolves

Expansion to 14 teams has affected keepers and strikers. I looked down the forwards list and didn't see anybody that I wasn't likely drop in the first month. Fletcher to Sunderland makes too much sense not to happen, which probably means it probably won't.

Sorry, another question:

If we take someone not currently in the EPL, are we bound by positional limits based on their current position? For example, I have 3 forwards already on my roster....can I take a guy that currently plays as a forward even though his role may be different in the EPL? If he comes over as a forward, then I'd have to drop one obviously, but what about before?

Drafted teams and game week rosters must comply with FPL site rules. 5-5-3 w/ 2 GK. If the site inexplicably classifies Fletcher as MID, I'll have to throw him back.

10.09 Leon Osman MF Everton. Someone will have to help me with the amount, I think it's 6 or 6.5 but I can't access the spreadsheet and I can't get the player list page to load on the premierleague.com site.

10.5 Hulk TBD MF TBD
I thought Hulk was a forward? I will add him as a MID until he is categorized by the SW.
Yeah, he is.Givanildo Vieira de Souza (born 25 July 1986), commonly known as Hulk (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈhuwki]), is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a forward for Porto in the Portuguese Primeira Liga. He received his nickname from his father, a fan of the television series, The Incredible Hulk.[1]

Iron_Far is out of FWD spots. He will just have to adjust I guess if Hulk gets signed.
 
Does this mean that if Hulk gets classified as a FWD by the site as expected, that Iron_Far effectively has transfer protection for 4 forwards?

I think if he is classified as a FWD (can't imagine that he wouldn't be) that he has to throw someone back and anyone can clone that player.
 
If Hulk is classified as a forward, I relinquish the rights to one of my forwards.
I think this is fair.If this does happen, we need to remove the player you no longer have rights to from e master spreadsheet so that people will know they can use him.

A similar question was raised earlier this morning. If iron_far has no FWD slots remaining, he has to draft Hulk as a MID. He'd lose exclusive rights if he doesn't transfer in -OR- gets classified on the site as a FWD.I think it's fair to allow iron_far a re-pick if he wants one. He could also trade one of his current FWDs to somebody with an open slot or take his chances that FPL views Hulk as a MID.
 
Well, I want the OPTION of deciding to keep Hulk over any of the other three forwards if he does get classified as a forward...

I realize we're getting into uncharted waters here but I think stashing players in a thin position goes against the spirit of the rules.
